I created this website to provide my clients and the general public with an authentic and reliable healthcare resource, containing trustworthy guidance and useful links to help them learn more about what truly and predictably creates health.

It is often challenging for people to know who and what to trust when it comes to their healthcare guidance. They are bombarded with tips, programs, and advice from the media, friends, family, the internet, as well as from various healthcare practitioners, all with sometimes very different answers to their questions.

Many have shared with me that they are often more confused than helped by the wide range of contradictory opinions and advice, and with good reason. Here is why the "recommendations" are so varied, and range from helpful to potentially harmful:

Much of what is shared is based on short-term or individual results. In their enthusiasm to share something that seemed to work for them, many people assume that the benefits they experience are sustainable, and will help others similarly.

Antiquated models of healthcare form the basis of many opinions. Staying abreast of the most recent advances and developments in diagnosing illness and in promoting health is time-consuming, costly, and challenging. So, advice is often based on antiquated, inefficient if not ineffective, approaches.

Inability to decipher research studies leads to inaccurate guidance. For most (people, agencies, the media, etc.), it is difficult to be able to differentiate valid research findings and results, from erroneous, and often biased, research conclusions about what helps vs. hurts us.

Advice is often based on limited knowledge of how the body functions. Without the benefit of a thorough understanding of the multiple complexities of the human body and how it responds to change (like from supplements, drugs, exercise, etc.), it is difficult to come away with safe, clear and truly helpful guidance.

So, it is understandable why so many people are led to decisions about their health based on ill advice or incomplete information, producing limited, and potentially harmful, results, and expenses they can't afford or didn't expect.

Expert Guidance + Proper Support = Results

While accessing authentic information is beneficial, my experience suggests that most people need assistance with uncovering the underlying causes of their health condition. They also require some personal guidance, monitoring of their progress, and on-going coaching, to sustain their efforts, and ultimately, to help them reach their health goals.

As a Holistic Primary Care Physician, I also oversee all aspects of one's health, clarify additional treatment and diagnostic options, analyze and interpret any lab and testing results, and refer to other medical specialties and alternative modalities, as indicated.

Evidence-based, Wholesome Guidance

Recommendations I share on my website, as well as with my clients in consultation, are predicated on the most current, valid, and evidence-based medical and nutritional research.

My suggestions are also based on observing my clients' response to care over the past thirty years, and the result of on-going collaboration with some of the finest traditional and non-traditional medical minds and hearts in healthcare today.

I wrote each article with the emphasis on safety, practicality, and effectiveness, with the ultimate goal being that this information will assist people in making better, more informed decisions about their health.

My hope is that these articles and direction (and links within) will reveal new possibilities for safely and predictably improving one's health and quality of life, while minimizing much of the unnecessary suffering and early demise that is far too common today.

Why is my approach so effective, even when others' haven't been?

I utilize the principles of Functional Medicine, which focuses on looking below the "surface" where the true causes of illness originate.

Functional Medicine is personalized, science-based healthcare that deals with primary prevention and underlying causes of symptoms and chronic disease.

A core aspect of my approach is to teach, inspire, and support you in improving your health and quality of your day-to-day living through the use of the most beneficial and efficient health interventions and educational resources available today.
